[!NOTE] Supports all OneNote hierarchy items i.e. notebooks, section groups, sections and pages.

Create New Items

Whilst using the notebook explorer, if your search query does not match any names of the items in the results, the plugin will give you an option to create a new item.

Pressing Ctrl + ⏎ Enter on a selection will create the item but not open OneNote for quick creation.

Shortcut Preview Panel Action
Ctrl + S Creates the page in OneNote but does not open OneNote
Ctrl + O Creates the page in OneNote and opens it
Ctrl + ⇥ Tab Traverse to next textbox/button
